Water geysers appear in fiction in two common forms: The first is a Comedy trope that can be seen very often in Western Animation. A character comes across a geyser and becomes innately curious about it as he looks directly into it, when the geyser suddenly erupts in a torrent of water that thrusts the character up into the air. This sometimes results in the victim bouncing around on the top of the spray. This is not Truth in Television, because a person will just get thrown back a few feet from such high water pressure. And be cooked by the superheated water. The second form comes as a mechanic in video games (usually of the Platformer genre), and the geysers end up being moving and/or slippery platforms. Sometimes something else (such a stone slab) on a water geyser is shot upwards, acting as a platform. This type of lift sometimes happens with lava geysers as well. Exploiting water geysers outside video games is fairly rare. Can go hand-in-hand with Making a Splash. Sister Trope to Blown Upward by a Blowhole. Examples |

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has a slightly more realistic version where the geyser holds up a bridge instead of Link himself. There are also several geysers in Death Mountain that hurt you if you're near them. | |

In The Goonies, this happens to Troy while he is in the bathroom, and Mikey and the others were fooling around with the water pipes. However, this would also count as a Special Effect Failure, because while Troy is thrust up into the air by the water from the toilet, you can clearly see the platform on which he is sitting that makes the stunt work. | |

The Looney Tunes short "Tweet Tweet Tweety" had Sylvester chasing after Tweety into the geyser Old Faithful, which is slated to go off at 12 noon. Sylvester changes the clock to 11:30 before going into the geyser, but Tweety switches it to 12:00, which causes Sylvester to get thrust into the air on a torrent of water. At the end of the Bugs Bunny short "Oily Hare", an oil tycoon and his flunky who had been chasing after Bugs throughout the cartoon both get thrust up into the air on a carrot geyser that had been caused by a ludicrous amount of dynamite that had been shoved into Bugs's rabbit hole, in an attempt to get him out. In "Frigid Hare", the villain is carried away bouncing on top of a whale's spout. |

Mario Party 8: Played with. The minigame Lean, Mean Ravine has two teams of players use motorboats to race across a mildly-flooded mountainous ravine with geysers that, instead of making them rise, knock them aside considerably. The key is to avoid these geysers and instead use the boosting ramps to gain speed and reach the goal first. The losing team is trapped upward by a geyser during the celebration of the winning team, however. | |

In King's Bounty Legends, the Water Geyser spell will summon huge pillars of water from under each enemy, propelling them in the air and damaging them as the fall down. Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Skyward Sword all feature Down the Drain levels where waterspouts from pipes are used as lifts. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has a slightly more realistic version where the geyser holds up a bridge instead of Link himself. There are also several geysers in Death Mountain that hurt you if you're near them. |

Mr. Bogus: Bogus ends up getting thrust up into the air on a torrent of water from a sprinkler in the second act of the episode "Good Sport Bogus" when attempting to get a drink of water from said sprinkler. A claymation short that was used after the second act of the episode "Bogus To The Rescue" had Bogus turn on the faucet on the bathroom sink, only for a huge torrent of water to shoot out directly from the bottom of the faucet, propelling Bogus into the air. This happens again to Bogus near the end of the first act of the episode "Waterboy Bogus", after getting blasted into the air, thanks to a blast of water from the orca's blowhole. Another claymation short had this happen to Bogus again, after he spits directly into the drain of the bathroom sink. |

Super Mario Sunshine: This trope is the entire basis for F.L.U.D.D., especially with the Rocket Nozzle (whose purpose is to catapult Mario upward) and the Turbo Nozzle (which unleashes a torrent of water that increases Mario's speed tremendously). | |

Subverted with the 1939 The Three Stooges short "Oily to Bed, Oily to Rise" in that this trope happens with oil instead of water. While the Stooges are cleaning out the water pump belonging to a kindly old lady, oil spurts out from the pipe. Curly sits on the pipe to plug it up – but is propelled into the air by the oil geyser a few seconds later. This gag was reused in a later short, "Oil's Well That Ends Well", in which Joe Besser stops up the oil gush instead. As footage from the former short was used here, careful observation will reveal that it's Curly on the oil geyser and not Joe. | |
